Orange Pants

Hey there!

Today is such a beautiful day and I really felt like wearing orange! The funny thing is that I hated orange until last summer when it became extremely popular. It was just the most ugly and unflattering colour to me, I have no idea why, all I know is that my mom could never make me wear anything orange. But as we experienced colour blocking trend last season and it was orange everywhere, I sort of fell in love with it although I wasn't sure whether I was brave enough to wear it. Well this year I definitely am and I'm pretty sure you're going to see quite some outfits with them :)
So for this look I wanted to play with colours a bit and so I went for a slight colour blocking - pairing two colours that contrast each other, in this particular case, blue is opposite to orange in the colour wheel. I think this way of colour blocking with contrast colours is my favourite because it's such a pop of colour and it looks gorgeous! Although as I said before, this is only slight colour blocking as there's a lot of white incorporated as well (since I don't own an overall bright blue top, I just worked with what I have), which makes the look a bit more subtle and so out there. But I still love it!

Top: H&M (recent), pants: H&M (recent), shoes: Steve Madden (recent), cardi: Dorothy Perkins (last season), bracelet: Dorothy Perkins (last season), necklaces: the one with pendant was a gift from my mother when I was younger, the other one is just a random chain I wrapped around my neck twice. On my nails (if you're able to see) is Essie Mint Candy Apple and on my lips is ArtDeco lipstick in 435 with L'oreal 6h Glam Shine in Lasting Coral.

Lots of Love, Ellie <3
